What aspects of French culture are mentioned in this short story excerpt?
Answer:
After reading “The Terror” by Junot Diaz, for the first time, I recognized the author's purpose to show how someone's fears can affect their everyday lives. The message I received from this story is that you cannot live your life in hiding from the things that scare you. As problems arise we can choose to let it hurt or help us. In this case, Diaz allowed his fears to isolate and bring him down until he realized he couldn't run away anymore instead, stand up to them. Although this is a familiar topic to me, I enjoyed reading from a different point of view. The words, “Eventually the bruises and the rage faded, but not the fear. The fear remained. An awful withering dread that coiled around my bowels — that followed me into my dreams” (Diaz 1) stood out to me because the descriptive language shows how his pain continued. After getting beat down he was scarred not just physically but mentally. As I read those words it was almost as I felt the pain he was feeling. I find myself constantly having dreams and nightmares that I can connect to my daily.
The author also used strong words that showed how she felt about the type of world he was living in. He showed algopsychalia and psychalgia. He knew what he was feeling so he showed it to us in the way that he knew best. His story showed me and the world that no matter what you go through there is always a reason for it. He was living in constant terror but was not giving up. And for him to had published this book, He made it very far and accomplished the great things in his life.
